Bdt even's band of men of letters should have a wider scope than the names balloted "for would indi cate. Poets, iioveKsfs -and historians are not -the only men eminent in letters. In fact: it is veiy difficult to decide what class :of brainy men, speakers or wrif-ers are.entitledto the highest meSrot'praise. The French academy demands original research as one of its 'qualifications. Bnt we proptraB lo say to those yba voted men only among the immortals' that the great public will vote for women, too. ENGLISH INGRATITUDE. it . ''r " The Jjoudon Times is unkind. It has made the heartrending discovery that "at no time since the outbreak! of the civile arhas so little attention been paid in England to the affairs ef the United. States as during the last four months." The now editor of the Ti 77H9-li not, we. are a'fraid, a friend of ours. If hewere ha would assuredly have kept his secret secure ly locked in his own bosom instead of blurting It out to the whole world. The chances arc that this lack of English inlHstia our polities will kill off half tho presidential booms and dampen the ardor of the politi cians in bQtti. parties. "What is the trouble with our '-English cousins?" Havo we not sent her all our bast aolora and actrsfes, and- have we not eariohed nil -those vliotn she has sent us?

In 'one of the western courts another suifc of 'a similar charnoter is pending, the plaintiff being a wid ower who asks" -an equal sum for the loss of his wife. These amounts may seem to Be extravagant,but are they so really? It- is .a very ordinary oc currence for juries., to sward-81,000 and 1,590 for tJ&T" "loss" of a foot which was- nnythipg;..but -pretty, or for a hand wh56h-Wa."fT3r.irdm lovely in life. An eye'at-'erhaps squinted sometimes fetches :.iwiae. these sums. A husband, if "he is at all worthy the name, is assuredly worth a' round fifty thousand. A wife who is no more oughi'to bo appraised at double that amount. Tnfl Canadians iiro oonffratiilatinfj themselves rbotie cost of maintain ing the White house at "Washington is a ui8ro trifle aa'jcbm'pared with the expense of the face-regal court at Ottawa. The amount appropriated for the governor-general, and the officials who surrouncThini is $950, 000; while the president receives only 50,009 per year, with ten or fifteen thousand dollars additional for a few private secretaries and clerks. Re pairs of the government house at Ottawa cost SIOO.OOO, and the travel ing expenses of the Viceroy 172,000. It is not surprising that the Dominion is proud. Her territory is larger than that of the-United Statesand her ex penditure 'for her chief ruler is, of course, on a proportionate scale.
